From reading about your people.... Begin to formulate your own theories about what might have caused them to become great and look for evidence to support your theories.
Meet with your group members to compare what you've learned. Are your theories similar? Can you find anything that the famous individuals might have in common?
If you find nothing in common, you may want to come up with some group theories and go back through the information on your subjects. Perhaps you overlooked something. If there is nothing in common, this will need to be incorporated into your presentation.
Develop your plan for the presentation you will give to others. You have your own wiki page, what sorts of tools will you use to show both information about your famous people and what they have in common. Will you use a podcast? A short video created on a flip cam? images? links? keynote?
Determine what role each of you will play in the presentation and what each of you will contribute.
